    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Negro_Motorist_Green_Book

    Green wrote his guide to services and places relatively friendly to African Americans

    Green founded and published the Green Book to avoid such problems, compiling resources “to give the Negro traveler information that will keep him from running into difficulties, embarrassments and to make his trip more enjoyable”

    You’ve completely twisted the reality of what that book is. This was a guide on safe places, not your dystopian private citizen political tracker you’re trying to promote.
